St Teresa's Live Simply Award
Fri 28 Feb 2025Live Simply Award
We are thrilled to share some exciting news! On Tuesday 25th February, our school was assessed for the CAFOD Live Simply Award. This award recognises schools that take action to live simply, sustainably, and in solidarity with those living in poverty around the world. Over the course of a year, our school has worked hard to devise and implement an action plan that demonstrated our commitment to these values. We had to provide evidence of our initiatives, attend an interview and some of our pupils were also interviewed as part of the assessment process. We are delighted to announce that we have successfully completed the assessment!
Here is a quote from Dympna Edwards, CAFOD’s Live Simply assessor:
“It has been a pleasure to hear about your faith-inspired actions, demonstrating how you have been living simply, sustainably, and in solidarity with communities around the world living in poverty. This is a fantastic achievement, and we warmly congratulate you, your pupils, and your staff team.”
This achievement marks a significant milestone for our school, and we are incredibly proud of all the efforts put in by the whole school community. A special thank you goes to Mrs. Smalldon and Miss Stokes, whose passion and leadership have driven this project forward. We are beyond thrilled with this accomplishment and look forward to continuing our work towards living simply, sustainably and in solidarity with others.

Mini Vinnies Christmas Food Bank Appeal
Wed 06 Dec 2023We are the Mini Vinnies and we have been thinking how we can help families not as lucky as ourselves in the run up to Christmas. Christmas can be a time of need for many people and so we have decided to support the Penwortham Food bank at Kingsfold Community Centre. We would like to ask the children of St Teresa’s to bring in long dated food items before the 20th December so that we can deliver it to the Community Centre during the morning of the 22nd December. If you can help us with our Christmas appeal, we would really appreciate it. We are asking for one item of food per family and have split the food items into groups in the table below to help with the list of items needed.
KS1
- Tinned fruit
- Tinned Vegetables
- Tinned Tomatoes
- Rice pudding
- Custard
- Soup
- Beans
KS2
- Crisps
- Cereals
- Biscuits
- Christmas items such as:

Cold Water Kills Safety Advice from Lancashire Fire and Rescue
Wed 19 Jul 2023Drowning Prevention - stay safe near water from Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service
When the warm weather hits, please don’t be tempted to cool off in open water -
- The water is colder than it looks, even on a warm evening
- This can lead to cold water shock
- The current is stronger than it looks
- There are hidden dangers beneath the surface
- It is likely to be unsupervised
If you see someone in trouble in the water:
- call 999;
- encourage them not to panic;
- and, if they can’t stand, float on their back in a starfish shape.
Tuesday July 25 is World Drowning Prevention Day. See World Drowning Prevention Day - 25 July (rnli.org) for information about the day. To help raise awareness, landmarks across the whole of Lancashire are being lit blue on the Tuesday evening. We would love to see your photos of them if you spot any (only the buildings though please – try not to include people). You can send them to - preventionsupport@lancsfirerescue.org.uk
